I would ask them how they would feel if they wear skinned-alive and their skin was used for the sake of "Fashion".
umm i really hope that is fake? or option 2 do u understand how many animals had to die so you could wear something like that and how many baby animals lost there mothers and fathers or there sons and daughters brothers and sisters and whole familys were killed just so you could wear something that you think makes you look cool when in the real world it makes you look like a killer? u wouldnt like it if someone killed you or someone in your family ans wore there skin now would you? no? then why the hell are you doing it? XL thanks
I try and be polite about and explain to them the cruelty that goes into it and that wearing real fur is outdated and frowned upon by the majority of people (which it does seem to be in the UK). However, I do tend to find that people like that are so narrow minded and obsessed with being the centre of the universe that they can't comprehend the truth, that they look disgusting and that they aren't so special that putting animals through hell before murdering them in the most horrific way is acceptable. They usually have to feel as though its their own decision so if you lead by example they will probably follow and claim that its everyone else copying them. (womens small)
I would say that they do not know everything a poor animal could pass so she could use that, there are cruel people in the world who do not care about the suffering of a helpless animal and call themselves "the law of the strongest "and to use that you become an accomplice of the abuse, we can look good without wearing fur and that each person can contribute a little to stop these evil people who only care about the money they earn.
I ask people all the time if their fur is real, to which they usually say no. But if I ever met someone who was wearing fur, I would say, "Do you know whose skin you're in?"
Women's large c:
I would say"you are wearing a skin of a dead animal on your body".I hate people wearing fur
shirt size small
i tell them how would you like to be skinned alive
Wow! People who wear fur are really tough!! They can stand wearing an animal!! They touch the blood and the flesh of the killed animal!! They know that they are responsible for screams of an afraid and scared animal!!
fur is murder, inhuman, disgusting and i kinda want to slap anyone i see who wears fur and be like i hope you enjoy your murder coat, and how could you wear a coat so proudly after and animal was skinned sometimes alive for it fur is dead, just saying shirt size = xl thank you PETA!!
I break out my cheesy references.
"You look like Cruella Deville. There's a reason there's 'Cruel' in her name."
Shirt size Medium.
That's actually perfect and clever
i think that the people that think they have a title to animals fur are sick and i tell them how horrible & tacky they look, and that animal did not "give" up their fur for you…usualy that mean that there was a choice. no choice for them though(size large)
When I see someone wearing real fur, I ask them if they like wearing animals skin. I did that once to someone in the store once, and they just looked at me confused, looked at the jacket they were holding, cringed, then walked away. It felt pretty good knowing I could at least make once person change their mind about wearing fur!
T-shirt Size= L
I say that in order for them to wear that fur item an animal was burned, drowned, and skinned alive just so they can wear they. Terrible!
"Animals feel pain too. Next time you go shopping think about slaughter, then see if you can buy that fur." Large
People who wear fur only do so because they feel inferior about their own physical appearance, and need to adorn their shitty carcass with a beautiful, albeit dead, carcass.

I do say something…I usually ask them "do you know what happens to animals for you to wear that fur?"
I ask if there fur is real or fake, if they say its real i be polite and tell them all the suffereing that took place from an animal just from that fur. Another thing i tell them is that i hope that they dont ever wear fur ever again.
i tell them they're terrible peopple, that they don't even look nice wearing that, and i ask them if they have nothing better to spend their money in.
size: large
I try not to be rude, it's hard though. But you're not going to change any minds by screaming. I tell how many animals suffer for fur and how painful it is. The typical "How would you feel" speech. I do my best to get through to them. X-Large
Just because you wear a cute little animal doesn't make you cute, just a killer. If their wasn't a demand for fur their wouldn't be a need for the supply of it. Stop the slaughter of the innocent.
Sometimes, what I say to those wearing fur isnt the nicest thing, but its the truth, I make sure to tell them where that fur came from, how its hurt (and hurting every day) animals, that their fur is meant to keep THEM warm and not us, nor is it supposed to be used as a fashion statement because lets face it, thats the only reason people wear fur now-a-days, its not to keep warm, in the ice age time, YES, it was to keep warm but we're not in the Ice Age, we're in the 21st century and there are things called space heaters and insulated jackets that are completely cruelty free.
I say 'fur-ck you!'
Sorry I know, it's pretty lame.
Size medium
I start telling them that what they are wearing is indeed a once living animals skin that has been chemically treated so it won't rot while they are wearing said fur. XL
a lot of little animals shure suffer to look pretty , werent you pretty all ready?.
Size L
FUR is for animals.. are you an animal? NO! we have hair for a reason, and we dont need to steal an animal's coat to look "fashionable" when its actually just disgusting. if it werent for that purchase, that animal would still be thriving. its sad. i would love this shirt because i will never buy fur. i wouldnt wear my dog.. so why wear a different cute animal?!
thanks a bunch! im a size xs or small female.
Some of these girls at my school are all nice with their fur coats and glamour and all.
"Hey. You know that cute little dog at home you love? YOU'RE BASICALLY WEARING IT."
I tell people that they're a thief, because what they're wearing is stolen. Innocent beings died for that coat, or shoe, or hat, and no fashion statement is worth killing for. There are fare more humane options, that look exactly the same – but the other options spare lives and show humanity.
size small
I say "Why are you wearing THAT?" because it's really, really gross -.-
you mean what would i say to monsters like Kim Kardashian… or Those God-Awful Olson Twins… waaay to many horrid things, very un-christian what im thinking to say to them right now, but i'll censor it (:
"heartless monster, do you really think you would enjoyy yourself being captured from your home and family, while being beaten and mistreated (biggest understatement you could imagine) then to make yourr day better, you get to watch your mom get boiled, electrocuted (and God and petas undercover cameras only knows whatelse)then watch in horror as shes skinned alive and thrown into a pile. Now wear that carcas over your dress with a clear mind.
(womens: medium)
this is what I think I would say : "would you feel the same if was your skin, being used by an animal? fair enough, ahn?…"
and… size M
I say "Wow – how can you be so selfish? Do you really feel you are entitled to kill so many animals, just to cover yourself up? Skellanimals rock! XL
I wold say that is mean that u wold where a cute innicont animal like that .!.!! Xxl
i would tell them " how deer you were that do you now meany animals are killed for there fur and same time there most of them don't even get killed there skinned-alive. .the one's that are not killed die of there pain . .i bet when you get a cut you cry and scrim imagine being skinned-alive and they just toss you a side and your just felt there do die slowly and painfully so how who you fell ?" that wold be my question to them. . thanks (XL)
it is rightly said, you can not wear a animal skin
fur is really dead, its the dead skin of an animal. why would you want to wear it?
i would wear this shirt all the time if it was a size small. Also i would tell people that it is unhumane to wear fur because it is like taking someones skin off and wearing it around. Witch really nasty.
I would say "how would you like it if i stole your skin and wore it for the sake of 'fashion'" or option 2 "oh your sooooo tough wearing somebodys fur jerk!!!" or option 3,"you do know that 1 mink coat takes the lives of 30 baby minks with no anesteshia??? furs not so graet now is it??"
I HATE PEOPLE WHO WHERE FUR IF YOU REALLY LIKE THE LOOK O FUR YOUR SICK!!!!! GO FOUX!!!!!!!
